加里宁是笔者最喜欢的前苏联作曲家之一。

German Germanovich Galynin (Russian: Герман Германович Галынин, German Germanovich Galynin) (March 30, 1922, Tula, Russia – June 18, 1966, Moscow, Russia, USSR) was a Soviet (Russian) composer, student, and continuer of the Shostakovich and Myaskovsky line in Soviet classic music.

Raised in an orphanage ["children's home"], he taught himself playing several folk instruments and piano. In 1941, after Operation Barbarossa began and already a student ofMoscow Conservatory, he joined the army as a volunteer, directing there various grass-roots performances, and writing songs and music to dramas. In 1943-1950 (1945–1950, according to other sources) he renewed his studies at Moscow Conservatory under Dmitri Shostakovich and Nikolai Myaskovsky in composition and Igor Sposobin in music theory. Inasmuch as in 1948 Shostakovich was accused of "formalism" in music the same tendencieswere detected in the works of his pupils, particularly Galynin. Tikhon Khrennikovcriticized Galynin's First Piano Concerto in particular, although he later (1957) denied such an assessment. Nevertheless the composer was awarded the Stalin Prize in 1951 for his "Epic Poem" (1950).

Being seriously ill with schizophrenia since 1951, he still wrote music actively although the composer spent a considerable part of his life in hospitals and psychiatric clinics. Galynin’s work is a bright phenomenon in Soviet classical music and is, unfortunately, still underestimated in his homeland and largely overlooked in the West. Within the well-developed system of public Children's Music Schools in Russia and the former Soviet republics Galynin is virtually most gratefully remembered due to his short and easy pieces of music composed for beginners, some of them being variations of popular folk melodies. “The composer’s bright and original talent was a union of melodic generosity, picturesque harmonies, sense of modern colouring, and elegance of classical form”, the Encyclopedia of Music (Moscow, 1973) wrote of him. German Galynin died in Moscow.
